They weren’t prepared for the lunch rush today. First we waited over 10 minutes for a host to appear, that set a bad tone. The wait for the table was 25 minutes, which is common. Once seated service was slow and the food took too long. Between waiting for the host, the table, the wait staff, the food preparers, it was over 90 minutes before we got our meals.
We weren’t given a choice of high or low table or which part of the restaurant we wanted to be seated at, we got a high table on the Frothy Chicken side and we had to wear out coats while dining because it was very cold. Wishing you a better experience.

We all really enjoyed our meal. I was the only vegan and I left full and happy and so did everyone else. I had charred edamame, kimchi fries, veggie sushi roll, cucumber salad.
Charred Edamame: good but not the best I’ve had. It was a little oily.
Kimchi fries: SO SO good!!! I would have eaten my body weight in these.
Veggie roll: just had carrots, cucumber, and avocado but the rice was seasoned well and the roll was surprisingly big.
Cucumber salad: MY FAULT for not reading the description. I was expecting chili cucumber salad and it was actually more like a Midwest summer cucumber salad. Vinegar based, cucumbers, onions, tomatoes. It was good but I wouldn’t have ordered it if I had actually read the description because it wasn’t on theme with the other things I ordered.

Third time I’ve been here and it just keeps getting better! The food is fantastic, the vibe is immaculate, and the waiters and waitresses are amazing! Tonight, Tatum was so kind and personable and fun to talk to. Loved his service and this dinner date!

Every dish is bursting with flavor and texture, making it hard for me to pick just one! But I've come to realize that no matter what I choose, it’s always a great decision. Salads are always fresh. Salmon is always cooked to perfection. Pork belly is always tender with exquisite burnt ends. Sushi Rolls do not fall apart. Coffee is never bitter. Biscuits are never dry, and yes, they make a solid southern white gravy as well as hollandaise.
Today, we chose to try the Kimchi Fries for lunch, and I must admit, we were pleasantly surprised. I didn't anticipate that the kimchi would be roasted, but it truly enhanced the flavors in a way that was delightful. The roasting brings out a depth of flavor that’s not as noticeable otherwise. Combined with the sweet and spicy BBQ sauce, the crispy fries transformed into a whole new level of comfort food.
Samone is the sweetest! We came to Cowa Sakè tonight with friends and ate on the patio because we had our dog (Frenchie) with us. Right away they were so kind to bring her a hamburger patty and fries just for her! Samone then took our dog for an adventure walk while we were eating our dinner. We love her! ❤️ (and as always, our food and service was phenomenal)

Disappointing experience, all around. Was told the wait was ≈15 minutes. Waited over 30 just to be seated at a table that was clear the entire time we waited, and literally 2 feet away from a couple next to us. The place was freezing cold. Pepsi was un-carbonated. Had the crab rangoon dip, the bacon cheeseburger, and fries. Food was subpar at best. Service was terrible, waitress barely said anything to us and took her time between every interaction. Will not be back.

Great service and great food. They even took care of the doggo.
Good food but very small portions and a little over priced. The waitress wasn't really interested in sharing any ingredients or even asking if we wanted something other than water. I put birthday celebration on the reservation but ignored totally. Then looks at the bill and asks what the money plus the gift card equates to. Not good at all.

My family and I went to this place to finally spend my 20th Birthday after hurricane Helene. Absolutely loved the place, the Japanese green onion soup had a little too much ginger in it, but it was still really good, for my birthday I was able to try out A5 Wagyu for the first time, it was really good and a was great experience. The food was really fresh and we loved it. Our server Steven was awesome, always checking up on us making sure we were enjoying our meals, and even surprising me by giving me a little fried banana ice cream dessert on the house for my birthday. It's a little pricey but it was definitely worth it. We will definitely be back sometime.

If you want to spend a lot of money for no reason go and(try to) eat there, food quality is CERO, none, there is no such term in that place. just adding pictures, will describe my experience better than my words. Sushi is a joke. the less funny part is to request a drink to try to get something right but the drink came with no alcohol. after 3 days the taste to burned food was still in my mouth.

Wonderful experience. Food was delicious and brought in a timely manner. Staff was so courteous and especially Sushi Joe. Highly recommended.
